RIGHT NOW. At the CUNY Law school graduation. Graduates turn their backs on NYC Mayor Eric Adams. A protest against his terror against Black & brown communities, public education, libraries, migrants, health & safety. His support for state violence. Wow. xitter.cf/ilissilia/status/16570…

The fact that Mitch McConnell - a man with an unrelenting commitment to undermine America's first Black president - could lose his veto power over American democracy bc of Raphael Warnock, John Ossoff and Stacey Abrams is some kind of American justice.

There’s a lot of praise going to Stacey Abrams right now (as it should), but let’s not forget @MsLaToshaBrown of @BlackVotersMtr and all the other black and brown women organizers who have been at this for years. This is their victory! #GASen #GeorgiaIsBlue

Dear white women praising Stacey Abrams, Okay now find the black women in your sphere, in your office, in your PTA and listen to them too. Stacey would want you to, and she wouldn't have to work so damn hard if we had already done this.

I don’t usually share actual footage of me becoming emotional on here, but I wanted to share with you this moment. Disabled people have been sacrificed only to still show up. I will never stop saying that.

Check out 'ABOLITION FOR THE PEOPLE: The Movement For a Future Without Policing & Prisons', a series of 30 essays/stories produced by @Kaepernick7 & @levelmag. Don't miss an essential, standout piece on #DisabilityJustice from @CUNYDAJC friend TL (@talilalewis) of @behearddc.

Disability justice is essential to abolition by @talilalewis “Abolitionist movements must contend with how disability and ableism interact with carceral systems, and be committed to abolishing all spaces to which marginalized people are disappeared.” level.medium.com/disability-…

Disability Justice Is an Essential Part of Abolishing Police and Prisons

Ableism forms and informs violence, oppression, and incarceration, yet it continues to be ignored by social justice movements

Seven shots in the back. Seven shots. Seven. In the back. For breaking up a fight. I'm undone. Shot in front of his children. I'm undone. As #JacobBlake fights for his life, his kids are fighting off their trauma. I'm undone.

Solidarity to Black and South Asian people who are being told that we must feel proud right now, to hold the frustration of political representation in our bellies, lest we miss the celebration of a diverse empire

Abolition *MUST* include psychiatric facilities. They are yet another means of disappearing people — especially Black + brown multiply marginalized folks. Abolition IS Disability Justice.

On June 11th, Michael Hickson, a quadriplegic black man with COVID-19 was killed by a hospital in Austin Texas. Doctors decided he had "no quality of life" and was not worth spending the resources to save. The conversation between his doctor and his wife was caught on audio 1/?
